It's such a great feeling when you're looking for something and Traversy Media has a video with that exact same title
Love how they put a wix ad on youtubers who are trying to teach people how to build a real website
i know right
Yeah... Lmao
This is the MAIN reason why I turn on my ad-block, just for blocking that stupid wix.com, keep brainwashing people who don't know how to code a website to use their free service.
tree.g.b Chen Just remember that every time you fully watch an ad. You are supporting the creator :)
tree.g.b Chen dude, this guy is giving us quality content free of cost... We are not paying him anything. But atleast we should support him by watching the ads.
One thing to add: If you are contracting, start a private timer the minute you start discussions with a client, for your own benefit. It may take 40hrs to code a thing, but you also spent many hours working to win that contract, and many hours to deal with testing, fixing, redesign, installing training, billing, collecting, documenting, etc. Be sure that what you bill is adequate for how many hours you actually put into a contract. And don't forget to account for time spent finding contracts, dealing with taxes, bookkeeping and whatever else you have to deal with as overhead.
Both of you agree the client should pay for your overhead. One of you simply charges more per hour to cover it, while the other bills less per hour but for more hours. The difference is inconsequential.
Will you please make a check-off list for us who are just starting and are stuck on the script bit? :D
I think you should charge your client for the VALUE you provide them. For example: installing (own tools), billing, training, winning the contract etc. don't provide value. Testing, documenting, fixing, designing etc. however does. I don't think you want to disappoint your customer with charging for things they didn't asked for. If you call a plumber, you neither want to pay him for collecting tools and materials, only for fixing your problem.
For sure i won't come to you :)
Brad, you made me feel like I wasted hell of money and time in college. What you are doing is exactly what a college or university should have done. As a matter of fact, I almost finish my college with a decent GPA but barely take anything serious away from it. I have been spending almost 2 weeks watching your free tutorials and purchased some of your courses. Of course, I learned a lot from your way of teaching which I greatly appreciate!!! Thanks a bunch, sifu!
Khoi N I swear I’m in the same boat as you
As a CS student, this is not only helpful in terms of web development, but overall and in general for Computer Science. It's important to realize how to think about a project and what steps you need to actually put it into execution.
I have been stressing on how to start my final project. This really help a lot. Thanks Brad.
Brad your timing on uploading this video is PERFECT - I just started a serious personal project for the first time that focuses on back end development - Something I haven't done before since I mostly focused on front end. It's a real messy situation right now and I feel like I have no idea what to begin with. This video helps a ton in straightening the procedure. Thank you.
This was a really helpful break down. I’m starting my first “large” web app. I was sketching everything out and didn’t know where to start on what but this video gave me clarity on how tackle everything. Thanks so much man!
Thank you! I have a large project I've been wanting to begin and now that I've graduated and gotten over some intense health issues, I'm ready to jump on it! The timing and information in this video was spot on. Thank you!!
Thanks for the practical real world example! I appreciate illustrating some of the differences between a company environment and a freelance environment. That's something I'm curious about - it sounds like working for a company takes a lot of the load off your back - I'd be curious to hear about some of the drawbacks and disadvantages about working in a company env. vs. a freelance setting. Thanks again for the vids-your channel is great - tell the trolls to stick it where the sun don't shine.
Your video came just in time for me. I was looking for this exact kind of info these days. Thanks again, Brad!
Alessandra Souza copy & paste! How's your project?
Just in time ......it's a...... compiler J.I.T
It’s not a coincidence, UA-cam exactly know about what we are looking for... that’s scary
What's your project??
same
I've followed some your videos, I'd like to thank you for taking time to create some "real" useful stuff, I appreciate you going extra mile to educate people who need information, you provide valuable and quality stuff.
Thanks so much!! as always, it's nice to hear some honest and real-world experience shining through rich content. I really appreciate it! I know I'll probably watch this video a few times to get my head around it but putting structure around this stuff is always helpful.
Great video as always Brad, I found your experience working on the 3 types of different projects very similar to mine. Also props for the bit about testing at the end of the vid!
Thank you for the advice.
For a beginner like me all of this is gold
Very much appreciated
Much needed video. I have my Final year project due this year for my SE degree. Thanks man!
Definitely good advice! Planning roughly how different components of your app are going to work is so important. Had to learn the lesson the hard way by building an application, and finally realizing that I could have used a way simpler approach, which would have lead to the same result :)
Thank you Brad ! Those videos are important as the dev ones ! I'm using Trello to manage my projects ! It makes working and communication with the team much easier...
What obsessed me most about your work was a full detail explanation, you will explain everything down to the smallest detail. Thanks for your unconventional way of teaching.
obsessed????
Traversy, I am very humbled with the generosity of yours towards newcomers in web development. Your videos are a great help for all of us. Thank you so much, Brad. You are a Hero for me.
Great video. Would love to see more of these as I've been coding for many years but the one major issue I always have when building private projects is how to calculate the right amount to charge the client for the work. Even when the project is scoped out it aways seams to go longer than anticipated.
Today in our IT section, our team discussed Traversy skills almost five mints. I felt so good at that time when some one talk about my great teacher
I like that you motivate us beginners. Hats down to you Brad.
No jokes, when i saw the title of this video I rub my hands of excitement. This is such a great video and explains from start to finish great ways to plan yourself and be aware of the client's needs. Awesome work as always.
Thank you for the continuously good quality material that you put out! This video is awesome, a guideline I will surely come back to time and time again!
Great Video Traversy! Loved this video and super appreciate your time and effort man. Much love
I was just having questions around this topic and I came by your video, you are awesome!
Thanks a lot Brad ! It's crazy, but every time I need something, in the same week you upload a video about it.
It's magic :) thanks for watching
Thanks for this great informative video! I'm currently doing a software project as my final exam for being a software developer and I heard some things that reflect planning a project like I'm doing it right now!
Brad you are a great informative instructor, who gives not only advice to A LOT of beginners out there from JS all the way through the JS frameworks, HTML CSS Bootstrap, MongoDB including ROR, PHP and MySQL. I have learned so much from you.
Question is this, would you be open to doing a masters program that might span over a couple of episodes?
Love the guide man!
Thanks for putting this up, really valuable content.
Thanks for this, learned a couple of new things. Great tips for people working freelance. I never worked for a company except my own. Good to see you don't have to be responsible and manage everything. Might start working for a company. It gets a bit to much sometimes, so much work just before you even start coding / developing.
Brad, you are awesome and all your suggestions are always helping us in terms of current trends in the new technologies and development. Can you upload some content on docker and deployment, I will highly appreciate it.
Very good video as usual, I always have trouble picking up something that's bigger, even if split into chunks. Also the presentation layout is lovely.
Just what I needed brad you’re great thanks for all the help
Thanks Brad I am your follower....You have helped since I was a beginner..Now I am kind of in the intermediate. With videos like this I will grow quickly to become a Pro like you
Saw a comment on the last video about this, and here we are. Good job brad,,god bless you.
Excellent video as always! Thank you, Brad.
I particularly like it that the author is such a good speaker that he's got not rephrases or hesitations. Shows a lot of backstage preparations and familiarity with the stuff he's talking about.
Once again, excellent work my friend. You are worth every dime.
Need this one badly, thank you for the tips! Great help!
I am learning so much from watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing source of information. This one is quite helpful.
informative... your web development for 2018 was good.. i follow that and also share with others. thanks for your work. God bless
Thanks man, glad it helped
Traversy Media gr8 job
Dude this video came at the best time for me! Thank you
too informative, good job !!! its been a pleasure following your tutorials thank you!
this is the ideal video we all been waiting for! thanks brad!
This has been really helpful. Thank you kind sir
Thank you so much for all the great work you did brad....
Great timing, I needed this! TNX
as usual Brad great vid! bought your udemy Js course..needed also saying gratitude!!
Thanks for sharing your experience, I learned a lot from this video.
Thank you for such an informative video. Hope to see more awesome content on your channel. Cheers!
This is so golden! Thanks a lot for your work.
It was quite helpful in regard to how the web development actually works in reality, thank you for making this video.
Just picked up a client contact, and this advice was very helpful.
Thank you so much for this great video! It will be really very useful for me. Thank you again
thank you so much for this video, so enlightening and useful, greetings from Argentina.
Thankful for instructors like you on this Thanksgiving.
I really appreciate this guide.Thank you.
Especially loved this video Brad. Concise and informative. Keep up the great work
Thanks, I appreciate it
I am grateful that I found this channel while I was young! Now I have something to fill my time with. Thank you! ;)
... And I agreed with the fact that a developer should document everything they did, I have a notebook which I dump all my failure/success work so it's like a document that might be useful when you encounter a problem and is to difficult to think at the time. Just my two cent. ^_^
Thank you for your insight about this. really informative
hey dude i just love and understand the way u delivers quality contain through your youtube channel. As viewers i would be glad if u make a one video about the how the big site get made and please explain one particular website that how things get placed while developing the website means what tools we can use for particular stuff in website like angular js for single page application. In short decode one particular website and explain how all elements has been placed what tools they used .
What about design patterns? Might be a good idea to think about those beforehand.
Also, this process sounds a lot like the waterfall model, which is okay. But it would be nice to hear more about agile methods, test driven development, etc.
Anyway, thank you for making these videos. I really enjoy them
This is the most helful video i have came across so far. Thank u
Just saw this video. You're simply awesome, you earned my sub.
Thank you brad I always like you your tutorials helped so much, thank u bruh
Hi Brad, can you make a video about testing? Even if (like you said) you hate it and you are not good at it? It will still be worth it :-)
Thank you! Great nutshell guides!
Those are very valuable videos. You are the best programming channel on YT :)
thanks for this. I really needed something like this.
Keep it up Brad! with enthusiasm, from România!
I wish I had found this video when I had started freelancing. Great content. Thanks once again
Thanks a lot for sharing this with us. However, I have difficulties in managing web projects with a team, like each person has to develop something.
Can you please do a video on that?
I highly appreciated the current video.
Brad, thanks again for all of the content you put out. It’s so helpful. I do have one question.
Once you’ve selected a site to host you’re website, is this something you pass to the client, or would the developer keep tithe responsibility of paying and keeping up with the host site?
Great breakdown on all of this stuff. It is very useful info.
Currently Im not employed,, so I suggested to some network a web app to develop.
So all these points you saied applied on me 👍🏻
How to deal with my self and laziness is very hard job 😢
Very useful video ,, thank u 😀
This guy is extremely confident and clear at everything that's he's teaching us
Thank you so much, I really learned alot!
Another very poignant and applicable video from Traversy, speaking to up and coming web-developers by sharing his own experience. Full of real-life knowledge and some times daunting aspects of client interactions and budget in a clean, concise and matter of fact presentation. Newbies like me are well-off having this available freely on youtube as I can see this material being part of a bigger course charging $$$ from students. Much appreciated!
Im gonna be an account manager for a software development company (Ruby on Rails) and this video helped me to structure the idea I have to give to my future clients. You got any more videos that are more focus on the project manager´s/account manager´s point of view? Thank you !!
For the first 2 points of the slide at 16:52, daily-standups in SCRUM is meant to maintain them.
Thank you Brad, this was very helpful
Great Video, Learnt a lot from it. Thanks Brad
Great insights to easily integrate into one's existing methodologies. Nicely done!
Thank you sir
Clever video. Thanks for covering it.
Big Heart for this man and his Great Content
Awesome work, thanks for the knowledge.
Thank you mate this is really good advices
Thank you so much brad i learn alot from you ☺
Thanks Brad! You are amazing.
Great tutorial Brad! I wonder, do you have any good tips on #estimating how long milestones/projects will take? In college (2003) my instructors taught to me to always double however long I think it was going to take. So, that is the advice I've always followed. But, when I was interviewing with the head of a small startup that builds WordPress website for clients last year, he asked me generally how long would creating a website for a client from start-to-finish take. I told him it depends. Could be anywhere from one day to 3 months, but I always double what I actually think it will take and he freaked out. Was I given the wrong advice? Is that advice outdated? Thanks for continuing to make great videos for coders!
Thanks sir love your work, from Italy.
Hey Brad. You should do a video on "Block Chain Scripting" it's an industry that is really in demand right now. And is only growing.
Brad you are doing great stuff. Love from India
I love Traversy Media. Your content is awesome!
I really love this guy thanks
看了半年了,学到了许多,语速适中,适合我这种英语水平一般的自学者,多谢!希望能看到更多视频。
Thank you millions brad. Productivity, wireframe and timeline softwares. I guess these could be a great help during development. Anybody having a specific recomendation please do. I'm googling now though.
Hey Traversy! Thanks for the awesome video! As a fullstack project, lets say, I would like to ask you something related to this: should your work 1st on the front end or on the backend first?
I started coding 4 months ago and i got y 1st client and he wants to build an app but im kinda lost because i dont know where should i start, like the UI layout or coding/building the database first.
